- the machine-readable media 108 may include a transmission line or a carrier wave that encodes a data signal.
- the haptic actuators 106 provide feedback to a user of the UE 100 through a user's cutaneous sense or kinesthetic sense.
- the haptic actuators 106 may provide vibration, texture, temperature, or other touch feedback to a user through a user's cutaneous sense.
- the haptic actuators 106 may be electroactive polymer actuators, piezoelectric actuators, electrostatic surface actuators, Peltier elements, or other actuators/devices for providing vibration, texture, or temperature feedback. Alternatively or in addition, the haptic actuators 106 may provide a force feedback to a user through a user's kinesthetic sense.
- each of the haptic actuators 106 may include a mass that may be moved in one of two directions with a particular acceleration or velocity.
- the moving mass provides feedback of a force to a user by causing the UE 100 to move in a particular direction corresponding to the direction of the force.
- a user may then sense through muscle movement the direction and amplitude of the force.
- FIG. 2 is a conceptual diagram illustrating a UE 100 with a plurality of haptic actuators 106 x , 106 y , 106 z .
- the UE 100 may include at least two of the haptic actuators 106 x , 106 y , 106 z in order to provide feedback in at least two dimensions.
- the haptic actuator 106 x is oriented in the x direction
- the haptic actuator 106 y is oriented in the y direction
- the haptic actuator 106 z is oriented in the z direction.
- the haptic actuators 106 x , 106 y , 106 z each provide a force feedback.
- the haptic actuators oriented in the x, y, and z directions allow for a combined force feedback to be provided in any direction by controlling the haptic actuators simultaneously.
- the haptic actuators may provide force feedback and each may include a mass that can be moved in a particular direction with a particular velocity or acceleration.
- the haptic actuators 106 x , 106 y , 106 z may be controlled to provide a force feedback in any combination of the x, y, and z directions by simultaneously moving a mass associated with each of the haptic actuators 106 x , 106 y , 106 z.
- FIG. 3 is a conceptual diagram illustrating a UE 200 with a plurality of haptic actuators 206 x , 206 y , 206 z .
- the haptic actuators are layered in the x, y, and z directions, with haptic actuators 206 x layered in the x direction, haptic actuators 206 y layered in the y direction, and haptic actuators 206 z layered in the z direction.
- the haptic actuators can be activated and deactivated sequentially in the particular direction.
- a particular direction may also be indicated by activating the haptic actuators concurrently and modifying an amplitude of each of the haptic actuators with increasing or decreasing amplitude in the particular direction.
- the amplitude of the top-most actuator experienced as a vibration, texture, temperature, or another touch sensation
- the amplitude of the top-most actuator could be varied such that the haptic response is greatest when a virtual 3D object appears closest to the virtual front of the display (i.e., appears closest to the user).
- the amplitude of the top-most haptic actuator could gradually attenuate and the middle or bottom-most haptic actuator(s) could gradually amplify, thus creating the illusion of haptic depth as the 3D object appears to move away from the front and toward the middle or back of the display.
- the amplitude and timing of actuation for all the actuators may be synchronized for the best illusion of haptic depth as the virtual 3D object appears to move from the front to the back of the display. Timing delays between activation/deactivation and/or synchronized amplitude adjustments can simulate the time it takes for a 3D object to move from the virtual front to the virtual back of the display. For example, a virtual 3D object could be “pushed” to the virtual back causing only the back-most actuator to actuate when the virtual 3D object arrives at the virtual back, thus simulating the haptic experience of a virtual bump against the back wall.
- the UE 100 includes haptic actuators for indicating movement in each of the x, y, and z directions, therefore allowing for the haptic actuators to simulate movement in any combination of the x, y, and z directions.
- the haptic actuators may be excited in series with fluctuating amplitude to create the illusion of motion and depth in three planes that correspond to a moving 3D object. That is, the haptic actuators 206 x , 206 y , 206 z may be utilized concurrently to provide combined feedback, such as for example, to indicate movement from a top, right, and front corner of the UE 200 to a bottom, left, and back corner of the UE 200 .
- Such a change in the amplitude coupled with a direction of the vibratory feedback could indicate, for example, a small snow ball rolling down a hill and increasing in mass as it acquires additional snow.

- the UE 100 may further include one or more orientation sensors 112 coupled to the processor 104 .
- the orientation sensors 112 may include a gyroscope. Alternatively or in addition, the orientation sensors 112 may include level sensors and a compass. Furthermore, the orientation sensors 112 may include an inclinometer for measuring the tilt, elevation, or inclination of the UE 100 with respect to gravity.
- the orientation sensors 112 provide information to the processor 104 on the particular orientation of the UE 100 .
- the processor 104 may use the orientation information to determine how to control the haptic actuators 106 . That is, the processor 104 may be configured to control the haptic actuators 106 to provide feedback corresponding to the orientation of the UE 100 or to modify a feedback provided corresponding to the display based on the orientation of the UE 100 .
- the force feedback may be modified depending on the orientation of the UE 100 .
- the processor 104 may be configured to control the haptic actuators 106 to provide a particular force feedback in coordination with the display, and may be further configured to modify the provided force feedback based on the orientation of the UE 100 provided by the orientation sensors 112 .
- the processor 104 may be configured to provide a force feedback with a particular direction, velocity, and/or acceleration in coordination with a 3D display.
- the processor 104 may be configured to adjust the provided force feedback by changing the direction, velocity, and/or acceleration of the force feedback based on the particular orientation of the UE 100 .
- Such a configuration could be useful to indicate a particular direction to follow on a path without requiring that the UE 100 be held in a particular orientation.
- a force feedback may be provided to a user to indicate a forward direction while the UE 100 is held in any orientation in the user's pocket.
- FIG. 5 is yet another conceptual block diagram illustrating a hardware configuration for an exemplary apparatus.
- the UE 100 may further include additional sensors 116 such as one or more cameras, heat sensors, touch sensors, and/or proximity sensors coupled to the processor 104 .
- the additional sensors 116 sense the environment and relay information to the processor 104 .
- the processor 104 may control or modify the control of the haptic actuators 106 corresponding to the provided sensed information from the additional sensors 116 .
- the additional sensors 116 may determine how the UE 100 is being carried, whether in the right hand, left hand, or the pocket, and on which side the user closest, and control the haptic actuators 106 to provide feedback in the direction of the user.
- the processor 104 may provide haptic feedback in coordination with a depiction in the display 114 and modify the direction of the feedback depending on whether the UE 100 is held in the left hand or right hand, such as how a mouse can be converted between left hand activation and right hand activation.
